I think this is a very nice book with bugs that have different characteristics. And James is on a Journey to New York.

I love read this book last year, and it is really good! I love the whole concept, and the fictionality (is that a word?) of it. Enjoy! :{D~Mustache Emoticon

what a great book i really loved it i read it 5 years ago i think other people should read it.i also watched the movie 5 years ago it is exactly alike

I do not like this book. It is very fiction, a little to fiction for me. Maybe you like fiction, or maybe you don't. You deside if you want to read it or not. It is not believable to me. I don't feel like bugs can become giant. The whole story is basically about that bugs become giant human size, creatures.

His aunts aunt spiker and aunt sponge are scary to me ant spiker is very skinny and aunt sponge is over weight a little but I am still reading this book I just started I am on the point where they just saw that there was a peach on a tree and they said that they had never seen this tree grow anything (page 16-17.)

P.S. I really love this book soooo much!!

When i started reading it, i just couldn't put it down until i finished it in record time and read every word.

I agree with you when I started I could not put the book down too.

i really dont like the book but if you have watched the movie it was good. try it you might like it

good book and funny
